Aruba Fishing Reports

Pack a few snacks and tell the Capt. What you want to do. I personally hate offshore trolling so we stayed inshore and picked away at bottom fish.

Captains stories and humor made up for fishes lack of appetite. Not their fault. But thank them profuciously as the Weems Sisters are now oil tankers tycoons! Would go again without a d doubt.

Use teaser chatters they were awesome I prefer fishing in the morning before the sun gets too hot

Taking some bonine prior to the trip is not a bad idea. The waves get pretty high in some of the fishing grounds on the windward side of the island and around the point.

Book a larger boat to ha e a smoother ride in the wind and waves, i.e. at least 40-feet.

They say this is a slow time of the year for fishing, but if this is slow I can't imagine peak season. 8 Fish in four hours is a good time anywhere.

Get a prescription Scopolomine motion sickness path and you will be prepared for high adventure fishing in the normally rough seas of offshore Aruba

Our particular fishing day was a little slow. The ocean was a bit rough due to the constant wind. We heard there were 5 charter boats out that day. There were only our two catches, and one other from another boat. Not sure if that's the norm this time of year.

The waves were ROLLING due to the Aruba winds but other than that, amazing time!

Took a little bit to start getting bites but when they started it was fun.

Make sure to bring snacks on board with you, maybe some hand sanitizer and lots of sunscreen. I would even suggest for the ladies to bring some wet wipes, just in case they run out of toilet paper =)

The sea state was a bit rougher than I expected but the experience was still phenomenal. Great job by the crew!

This is a great trip for novices and experienced fishers. They provide everything you need, give lots of great information and are so helpful and nice.

Be ready for some wind and be ready to catch fish. Aruba is truly a hidden saltwater fishing destination.

Dramamine, choppy seas, not for small children or anyone who gets nervous easily

For ANY 1sr time deep sea fishers. Dont drink the night before, ront go to casibo night before and if you have a weak stomach dr ik nk coffee sparingly morning of and bring tums or pepto bismol. If you've done this before just expect s great time, especially on the Carla charter

Go fishing, it is worth it. I don't recommend it for all children, but I went with my 8 year old son and we loved it. If my son would want to do this again I would do it again for and with him.

Be ready for some tall waves off the end of the island, whether north or south.

Take some seasickness pills, the seas are rougher than normal with the tradewinds pushing them.

Be prepared for windy conditions and rough water. In NJ the would not go out in the daily conditions.
